Virtually visit new wineries each week. We taste at wineries on the Central Coast of California and share the experience and our thoughts with you!
Parrish has all the elements for the best tasting experiences: a great history, beautiful property, plenty of space for groups, good wine, food, AND coffee! You really cannot go wrong with a visit to Parrish. We hope you enjoy this episode, even if it is a bit noisier than others (they were busy, which is good!) and a bit rushed at the end (we had dinner plans people!).
Happy Tasting!

Eberle is a well-known east side Paso staple. If you've driven out or into town on the 46 East Highway you've likely seen their sign advertising their cave tours. Despite being so well known, one of us had never been and the other had not visited in over a decade. We broke that streak on Sunday morning and are so glad that we did! You'll get to follow along as we go on one of the cave tours and then hear an intimate conversation wi...
Steinbeck Vineyards and the family behind it have been in the Paso Robles area for 7 generations. That's quite a legacy and quite a long time to have been growing grapes. Their own label is more recent, established in 2006, but the care they put into their farming shows through in the wines you taste and the setup of the tasting room. Stop in to try the Cabernet (our favorite) and stay for the stories.
Happy Tasting!

Tucked in the east side hills of Paso, behind a large, well-known winery, is Ranchita Canyon Vineyard. Well worth the short trek from Paso, their tasting room is family run, welcoming, and has plenty to offer red wine aficionados! With lots of unusual and interesting red blends, as well as the extremely rare Cabernet Pfeffer, you're sure to find something you love and learn something new!
Happy Tasting!

We're back in Edna Valley for a stop at Center of Effort! Open by appointment, Center of Effort focuses their efforts (see what I did there?) on Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Tune in to hear more about their wines, approach and most importantly... our thoughts!!
Happy Tasting!

In one of our favorite episodes (and stops) yet, we visited Law Estate Wines in Paso Robles. A gorgeous building and setting is perfectly complemented by the gorgeous wines. We had the pleasure of sitting down with the head winemaker, Philipp Pfunder, and gaining a ton of in depth knowledge from him on the wines, vines, and everything in between.
We hope that you enjoy this episode and make Law Estate Wines a stop on you...

You know that very first episode of Portlandia where they're insisting on going to meet the chicken and see where it lives before they order the chicken dish at a restaurant? Well, wine has caught up to food and we know that one of the biggest movements in the industry right now is this concept of "vine to glass" or natural wine. Want to go and taste where you can see vines on the hill in front of you, and the hands pouring your ta...
Lusso Della Terra may mean "Luxury of the Land" but you certainly don't have to be rolling up in the Uber Black service to be able to afford their wines! We loved the down to earth feel of the tasting room and the co-owner, Megan, as well as the value of their hospitality experience. Their $15 tasting fee includes the typical flight of wine, cheese pairing with all of the wines, AND a tour of the facilities - if you choose to take ...
Top Winery is located in Tin City in Paso Robles. Tin City is home to at least a dozen wineries and tasting rooms and it's can be hard to stand out, but Top certainly does. Aside from having great wine, the hospitality, attention to detail, and warmth of the host (likely either the winemaker, Stanley, or his wife, Elena) help them shine.
We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Top on a Sunday morning, and appreciated that Elena po...
Come for the wine and stay for the wine... and the cheese... and the dog (Stella)... and the barn owls! We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Victor Hugo Winery. We've been uncovering some of the original wine pioneers in our last few episodes and we are loving it! The history that goes along with each bottle is what makes wine so unique. We hope you enjoy this *virtual* visit as much as we enjoyed it in real life.

...Dunning Vineyards has been a west Paso staple for decades! We had never had the pleasure of visiting them but we finally made it out there a few weeks back. We fell in love with the location and the guest suite that's on the property - we're told a bottle of wine is included with your stay!
Tune in and see what Dunning is all about!
Happy Tasting!

We think that the most important things to know about Torrin is in their "We Are" statement. It's printed on the wall in their Paso Robles tasting room and it goes:
"We are artists, farmers, chemists, parents, and friends. We are grateful. We are small but on the verge of something big. We are believers in sustainability. We are in awe of our children. We are optimistic, passionate, and curious. We are laborers, visionaries, ...
